No other devices supporting FlashTalk? Not for want of trying. I've
been trying since May to get details from Tops so that we could add
FlashTalk support to our four-port LocalTalk/Ethernet gateway. Might
be useful - FlashTalk speed straight through to Ethernet? Slow devices
on 1 (or 2 or 3) ports, fast ones on the other 3 (or 2 or 1). Possibly
useful device?

I never heard back from them. We're still interested. Hello?
